- Start low and balanced
Bend your knees, keep your feet apart and give yourself enough room to move the stick. - Rock back
Move your weight onto your back leg so you are ready to push forwards. - Get under the ball
Keep the stick low and slide the face of the stick underneath the ball. - Cradle the ball
Let the ball roll smoothly onto the stick as you start moving forwards. - Drive forwards
Push strongly from your back leg and move your weight towards your front leg. - Lead with your top hand
Use your left hand to guide the stick and help aim the aerial. - Throw the ball forwards and up
Use your legs, body and arms together — don't just try to flick it with your hands. - Release towards the target
Let the ball leave the stick as you move forwards and aim where you want it to land. - Finish balanced
Follow through with your stick and body pointing towards the target. - Low → rock → under → cradle → drive → throw → release → finish
